Fabio Concato - How Are You My Ba lyrics

No Pity From The Flowers

She looked outside where everything was wonderful

Everything was beautiful, everything was everlasting

Or at least it seemed to be ...

The flowers kept growing, all other things just carried on

Doing what they'd always done, doing what they'd do forever

If she did not stop them in time ...

And she lived, she cried, she thought herself to make it through the night

She loved, but she lost, she knew that thinking about it would make it worse - would make it worse

And she couldn't understand that the flowers didn't pity her

They didn't even notice her, they just lived happily ever after

Or at least they seemed to ...

They just kept growing, all other things just carried on

Doing what they'd always done, doing what they'd do forever

If she did not stop them in time ...

And she lived, she learnt, it's hard to play with fire without getting burned

She would try - she would try, she would try to fall asleep without the light

She remained, she stayed the same

Changed her ways, she dyed her hair, and changed her name - she changed her name

Now she's lovely Lady Sunshine in her Sunday dress

Picking up her life - God it's such a mess

Her boyfriend packed her joy and left her in distress

Yet she always wears a smile with that Sunday dress

And she learnt, she cried, she thought herself to make it through the night

She loved, but she lost, she knew that thinking about it would make it worse

She would try - she would try, she would try to fall asleep without the light

She remained, she stayed the same

Changed her ways, she dyed her hair, and changed her name

- she changed her name

And she learnt, she cried, she thought herself to make it through the night

She loved, but she lost, she knew that thinking about it would make it worse

- would make it worse... oh oh
